Comics publisher and Trek licensee IDW started a regular publishing cycle on Apple's download service with "Star Trek Archives: The Best of Peter David No. 1" -- a DC Comics reprint. The entire comic costs 99 cents through iTunes -- with more issues to follow.

The bigger story here is how the iPhone/iPod Touch is becoming the preferred method of electronic distribution for comics.

A quick tour of the iTunes store reveals several online comics, including a sequel to Clash of the Titans. Most of these efforts give you the first taste for free before charging the download fee for followup issues.
